Hello all forum members!
A woman's body parts are known to be much softer than those of a man. The below-mentioned sentences are stricty related to the fact.
My sister complains of pain in her buttocks from having ridden her bicycle for a long time.
My sister complains of backache from not having ridden her bicycle for a long time.
My sister complains of pain in her legs from not riding her bicycle regularly enough.
I hasten to explain what I mean.
1. My sister complains of pain in her buttocks from having ridden her bicycle for a long time. =? 1.) Today my sister was riding/has been riding her bike for many hours and the result is that she is suffering from pain in her buttocks.
2. My sister complains of backache from not having ridden her bicycle for a long time. =? 2.) My sister has not ridden her bike for a long time; that is why she is suffering from backache. The last time she got on her bike was many many years ago.
3. My sister complains of pain in her legs from not riding her bicycle regularly enough. =? 3.) My sister complains of pain in her legs because she does not ride her bicycle regularly enough.
What do you think of my 3 examples?
If necessary, I will start one thread for each sentence.
By "from having ridden", "not from having ridden" and "from not riding" I mean "as a result of having ridden", "as a result of not having ridden" and "as a result of not riding", respectively.
Thank you.
